Hi Darrell:
I chose the values for the S Meter voltage feed to be the most accurate; S1
with 1uv and S9 with 50uv. It also allowed full range of the S Meter as the
RF gain control was rotated through its range. Its possible that other
values would work as well.
As to the C3 issue, I was using a REV D board (before the POT was installed
in R1), and thus the cct traces on my Control board might have been
different. The attachment position of C3 is not critical - as it is a DC
cct and C3 is used for suppression; it has no other affect.
You might want to pass this information on to the Reflector, as I no longer
have my K2 and am not receiving the digests any longer.
I'm glad the MOD is working out for you.
Regards
Dave
